5.0 out of 5 stars"Love, Humility, and Stewardship, some of surprising elements that make First, Fast and Fearless a great read"By: Gordon Tredgold on October 12, 2015Format: Hardcover"One of the best books on leadership i have read for a long time. Very well written, with some very interesting information which will surprise many i am sure. When i picked up the book, i didn't expect for the leadership to be based around Humility, Servant Leadership and Stewardship, or for their to be talk of love and caring, these are not the first things that come to mind when you think of the mach world of special forces. But it just goes to show, good leadership, of which these are all elements, is good leadership in any environment. I was very pleasantly surprised and it is a book i will be recommending."

5.0 out of 5 stars"Outstanding book with clearly laid out path to great leadership in all walks of life"By: Brookz on October 14, 2015Format: Hardcover - Verified Purchase"This is practical and extremely insightful. Ed Hiner has taken the essence of what makes a Navy SEAL successful and has created a book that allows leaders from all walks of life to utilize the principles that he sets out so well in his book. This is not your typical Navy SEAL war book but rather a reasoned, thoughtful and well organized book that provides both examples and stories to illustrate how to be an effective leader. I for one have taken away a great deal of insight and lessons that I can apply in my life. This book is already on the LA Times best seller list and I can see why. Make sure to read it...you will profit from it."

​You may not be facing jihadists in the mountains of Afghanistan and the streets of Iraq like Hiner did. But just as his SEALs depended on him to lead them on successful missions and safe passage home, your people are counting on you to empower them, defeat the competition, and forge paths to greater success. This book will drastically change how you lead teams within your organization. It is a must-read!
